They Claim to be Defending Veterans

But the Project Would Fail Military Review!

When elected officials and advocacy groups invoke veterans to justify a project, the least they can do is follow the kind of disciplined planning and procurement standards the military relies on every day. In the armed forces, these processes aren’t red tape; they are safeguards that protect people, ensure accountability, and prevent costly mistakes. They exist because lives and resources depend on getting it right.


That’s why the comparison matters. If this project were held to even the most basic military planning standards, it wouldn’t make it past the first review.

U.S. Military Construction Process:

  • Begins with stakeholder needs 
  • Considers alternatives
  • Completes engineering and environmental analysis
  • Completes designs 
  • Then proceeds to procurement 

City of Boca Raton Process:

  • Started with procurement 
  • Selected a developer using unknown criteria 
  • Consulted stakeholders and conducted studies only after the developer was chosen
  • Skipped environmental and social impact analysis entirely
  • Ignored public‑finance options
  • Changed the project after selecting the developer 

This isn't just bad planning!

This is a complete disregard for best practices. And now the community is being asked to live with the consequences.
